bless my birth

Better to sit at the waters' birth, than a sea of waves to win; To live in the love that floweth forth, Than the love that cometh in. Be thy heart a well of love, my child, Flowing, and free, and sure; For a cistern of love, though undefiled, keeps not the spirit pure.

    What the heck-a is the Haka? I think I’ll google it. Or maybe I shouldn’t, I’d rather learn from you :)

    They had a challenge on The Amazing Race where the contestants had to match a design to one of the Maori Warriors’ faces. It was funny to see rows of guys sticking their tongues out at random intervals and stomping and yelling/chanting.
